Visions and Vows
A Passion-Driven Production Team
What started as a conversation between seasoned filmmakers Brian Ford (Director) and Kellie Koppel (Producer) quickly snowballed into a 27-person crew. The team blended veteran filmmakers from international markets with first-timers eager to learn, creating a powerful synergy rooted in curiosity and collaboration.
Key Playa-based production companies Alebrijes Films and Grand Solis Media joined forces, supplying professional-grade equipment and technical expertise. Local businesses like Coralsol (locations) and restaurants Buzos, Que Huevos, El Calambrillo, and Send Ramen (on-set catering) offered vital support, alongside generous private donors.
“Visions and Vows” Finalist & Red Carpet Premiere
The team’s short film, "Visions and Vows" starring Eman Abdou and Kissa Jo, not only met the intense challenge but was selected as a competition finalist, standing shoulder-to-shoulder with competition veterans from around the world.
To celebrate this milestone, the Playa Film Collective invites local press and the community to a Red Carpet Premiere on Sunday, May 11, 2025 on the rooftop of The Cache Boutique Hotel.
Red Carpet: 6:30 PM
